Yeah two tankers in the box would be setting off ADSB collision alarms in ZDC .

ATC does not rely solely on ADS-B - I doubt it bothers them....they can see them regardless of ADS-B.

Its probably so no one knows where they are.....like us !!

No I heard some tanker pilots talking about this last year and they mentioned why they turned one off.
Same with Altrav's you notice sometimes only 1 fighter will be on ADSB showing and the others are all off.
Those ATC controllers can get skittish at times with possible alarms going off.
I don't think they care during routine CAP work who sees what.
Like today and yesterday first tanker to CAP shows but subsequent tankers are mode off.

Well that's interesting since ATC had collision avoidance before ADS-B.....

some interesting comments in this thread How does ATC use ADS-B? - diamondaviators.net

Note the bottom three comments (especially the middle one) ... seems like to ATC --- ADS-B is more trouble than it is worth

We need a tour of busy ZDC or ZNY Prob the two busiest Centers in the US.
Maybe ADSB warning alarms in each tanker or fighter is also a problem.

You can arrange that for us?

Looks like GOLD-41 KC-46 inbound Charleston AFB.. Maybe not a Depot altrav?
Here comes GOLD-31 KC-46 #16-46023 from Kansas to Charleston.. Sounds like a good altrav coming up.
Tanker zombie-12 looking to move A/R track to W-386 due to turbulence forecast at 1730z.

My PA feed keeps dropping offline and program is freezing. Getting Error code 7

Have sent a message to ProScan in RR thread.

Just FYI

So it will be offline - since everytime I start it - it freezes.

I mentioned a tour of ZDC and/or Potomac TRACON to Alan Henney at the Capitol Hill Monitors meetup at the beginning of February. He said they had scheduled a guest speaker from the FAA back in early-COVID but they cancelled.

Are there any pilots in our viewing audience who have ideas on how to get a tour?

10:50 EST new tanker in the CAP - specific instructions to turn off ADS-B !!

Interesting! Is this a new thing? I noticed the Tanker providing CAP over the Superbowl went dark during the game then reappeared after. Usually POTUS CAP tankers are visible.

Not always, lately they've been dark more than on.

They both seem to be operating normally after a bit of tweaking. It helped when the two black suburbans left too.

Don't worry about them, it's the Baby Diaper Service delivery truck you need to be concerned with

Does anyone use the Stridburg Pre 20 receive pre-Amp? Is it worth the money?

I use the Moonracker M-100 now.

Thanks for any guidance.

I use both Stridsberg and Jim M-75 preamps in my installations.

Yeah and here I thought the FBI Surveillance van was the one to watch out for....
